    ahhh idk
    ide have 2 say
    5 titles in 5 divisions
    it shows that u battled ur way through all those classes and beat the best of the best to attain the belts
    that 2 me is a more impressive feat.

        This may be news to you, but there are others fighters who have 20 defenses or more in one division and they are American...

          think about Floyd compared to Joe.
          Floyd 4 titles in 4 divisons, faced and beaten 10 world champions all while moving up in weight.
          Joe has faced 4 world champs while staying at the same weight in 20 defenses!
          Thats NOT a good thing.

                  And you don't think a champion can handpick opponents either? What a joke. Do you have a short memory? Calzaghe just defended against the undeserving Peter Manfredo. Before the Lacy fight, he faced Evans Ashira who definetely didn't deserve a shot...

                  If you handpick a champion, you only have 4 people tops to choose from. If you handpick a title defense, you can pick basically anyone. Even a mandatory defense can be against a total bum...

                    20 straight to me is more impressive....winning a paper belt in a bunch of classes like Floyd and DLH have done is impressive but not as impressive as say what B-Hop or Calzaghe have done in their respective divisions.
